Wanted: Pictures

Post by MTA » Fri Oct 24, 2008 7:43 pm

Does anyone have any close up pics of Binnie Engineering skip wagons?

I have just got their catalogue and the pictures aren't of the best quality...

As you may have noticed the rocker thingy is missing from one end of the chassis, this is because it got knocked off and I haven't remembered to glue it back on yet. Weathering job is appauling just hit it with some iron filings at some point.

Cheers Will, I'll be getting a rake of them shortly!

How Binnie can charge them so cheaply and Brandbright can charge them rather expensively is beyond me, apart from the obvious difference in materials.

If the Brandbright one was made up then I could probably warrant the price...

For the length of rake you need of them, they've got to be as cheap as possible.

I have a rake of 6, but never really get them out. I will weather them at some stage, so I will probably run more skip trains then.
